Signs of life

by Helene   May 2, 2008


Something inside me,
Stubborn and frightened,
Pushing you further
And further away.
Something inside me,
Lost like a child,
Crying my eyes out,
To make you stay.

Like the rebellion,
Dancing inside me,
Looking for signs of life
In your eyes.
Trying to wake you,
Wishing youd see me,
Searching for anything else
Than goodbyes.

So Im throwing pebbles
And screaming my lungs out,
Running towards you,
Changing my lane.
Youre standing stoned,
Not really listening,
Not moving an inch while
Im going insane.

Im trying to get you
To see who I am,
Trying to make you love me.
But the harder I try,
I understand,
Youll never notice the real me.

Like the rebellion
Ill never bee,
Knowing beside you
Ill never be free.
Ripping my heart out,
Sick of goodbyes,
Searching for signs of life
In your eyes.
